  I cant get any of the codes on flickr to display in my posts, it just displays the code as a link :(

  have looked high and low over the last couple of days for an answer before posting here but with no luck, headache now!

  can anyone help point me in the right direction? i’m new to WP and blogging so may well be me.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  the correct way to embed flickr images is described here:

  Flickr Photos and Videos

  WordPress.com also supports Flickr Widget, which allows you to display thumbnails of your latest Flickr photos in your sidebar:

  Flickr Widget

  Now you should be able to use Flickr on your blog :)

  Where exactly is your link showing?

  it shows where the image should be when you ‘view’ the post before publishing, I dont want to publish until its right as it’ll go straight to facebook in a format I dont want on there.

  I have other images loaded from the WP library in the post that show fine, weirdly, late last night I used the std. url link & it showed for a while & I thought i had it, then when i used the method for another four images it stopped working, all codes had their own separate lines.

  the fact that it worked once is encouraging :D
